Throwback Thursday: When Anees Bazmee played a young Shatrughan Sinha in a film : Bollywood News

Filmmaker Anees Bazmee has taken the throwback Thursday with the right spirit. Hence, here we are, with our hands on a priceless trivia! Anees has worked with some of the industry’s best names, ever since he began writing and directing films. But we had no clue he was once a child actor who got an opportunity to work with none other than the legendary Amjad Khan!

The filmmaker took to his Instagram to share with us a greyscale, old picture of himself, standing with Khan. He essayed Shatrughan Sinha’s child version, in the 1981 film Naseeb! “I have been fortunate enough to work with so many top actors & actresses over the years as both a writer & a director. Lekin kya aapko pata hai ki, main ‘Naseeb’ film main chhote Shatrughan Sinha ka role bhi kar chuka hoon?,” he wrote.

I have been fortunate enough to work with so many top actors & actresses over the years as both a writer & a director. Lekin kya aapko pata hai ki, main ‘Naseeb’ film main chhote Shatrughan Sinha ka role bhi kar chuka hoon? ???? Here's a wonderful moment captured with the legendary Amjad Khan sahaab who coincidentally played a photographer in the film. Can you guess which one is me? #ThrowbackThursday

Naseeb, directed by Manmohan Desai, starred Amitabh Bachchan, Rishi Kapoor, Amrish Puri, Prem Chopra and Hema Malini in other pivotal roles. The legendary music composer duo Laxmikant-Pyarelal designed music for this.

What lovely memories to look back to!
